yet another great masterpiece. You make my postings of finish work look like a babies wooden alphabet block. LOL
Wouldn't worry about straightening the clock, it got the kink out of my neck lookng at. LOL

Super duper
!
There's some fine veining and bridges in that piece; you did well to cut them successfully. Whose pattern is it?

That's wonderful!
Yes, I'd love to know where the pattern comes from too.

Nice work Ian, you turn things out like a machine.
If you aren't selling or giving them away you must have stacks of your cuttings.
By the way do you have a job? If you do you must not be getting any sleep. LOL

Great job, even the oak looks nice
That pattern would also be killer cut in a piece of bloodwood or redheart......"Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They're easier to ignore before you see their faces.

Thanks again everyone.
Gill and Chris - the pattern is a White tails design one - though I got mine through Wooden Teddy Bear.
WTD have another one here that I fancy getting the pattern for - and yes Barry I'd already thought of bloodwood for it .. even if it is a bit pricey ..:-)

Ian, you've gotten more experience scrolling in the last few months than most people get in years. You are turning out some very excellent work. Either you're retired or you don't need sleep.Comment

This dragon is lovely. I've looked at dragon clocks and will eventually make on for myself. Your work is superb as always.

Thanks Diane - hey did you see the Jeff Zaffino dragon pattern in the latest copy of the "other" magazine? Now that looks like a challenge! Think I'll practise a bit more with spirals before I attempt that one ..Originally posted by Dragon

I don't get the other magazine.
This magazine offered me a free issue and it gave me the incentive to get a 2 year subscription.
The "other" magazine does not have a free issue and therefore I don't know how it is. I cannot find it up where I live. Also the price is double what this one is. I'm sure I am missing out on some nice patterns but I will have to live with it for now.

Ian, this is a fantastic cutting. You've been doing a lot of great work!
I agree that if you do this again you should go for exotic lumber. Yeah, bloodwood or how about Chinese elmwood?
